Waiting for a Cure founder and president Dawn Gillis told me yesterday the 100 tickets to Southern Miss' pink football game on Oct. 3 that was made available to breast cancer survivors, patients and their families, were snapped up pretty quickly.

That may seem like bad news, but USM athletics has donated another 100 tickets, so if you're hoping to go, there's still a chance you can. Give Dawn a call at (601) 620-6421.
